Instructions
Instructions
- Mix 100 g water, 100 g flour, and yeast in a roomy non-metallic container.
- Cover loosely and ferment in a warm, draft-free spot for about 18 hours.
- Transfer 50 g starter to a clean jar; mix in 50 g water and then 50 g flour.
- Keep feeding at a 1:1:1 starter-to-water-to-flour ratio until bubbly and doubled, usually 6 to 8 hours after feeding.
Notes
Do not seal the jar airtight; the starter needs room to expand.
Discard excess starter before each feeding and refrigerate once established.
